Windows Compact 7
Windows Compact 7
Hi, i'm trying to run a VM of Windows Compact 7.
I've succesfully did it on Hyper-V but i need usb passthrough so i need to use Virtualbox now.
On Hyper-V i was using the Network Legacy Adapter in order to boot via PXE: on Virtualbox i can't find something similar.
Are you familiar with this kind of option?
Thanks

Re: Windows Compact 7
I think you search for bridged network.
Re: Windows Compact 7
Hi Towo2099, no i need that VirtualBox virtualize a DEC Tulip 21140A network card to the guest.
Is it possible?
the DEC Tulip 21140A is the network card used by Microsoft VirtualPC

No, there is no DEC Tulip 21140A, the most compatible chip, vbox can emulate, are the pcnet adapters.

Re: Windows Compact 7
That card was used by Microsoft Virtual PC, not VirtualBox.

Re: Windows Compact 7
Why? Why specifically this NIC? Won't the default "Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop" work for you?cagnulein wrote:i need that VirtualBox virtualize a DEC Tulip 21140A network card to the guest

Re: Windows Compact 7
And how can someone get access to that? Is it an MSDN thing only? Also, is this "Compact" thing what they used to call "Embedded". From a quick search it looks like it...cagnulein wrote:it is inside the Windows Compact 7 SDK

Re: Windows Compact 7
If that is true then you will never get it to work in VirtualBox. As mentioned above, VirtualBox does not include that particular NIC emulation.cagnulein wrote: because i have a Windows Compact 7 image that recognize only that particular network card

I've solved using diskpart to build the vhd as described here Configure-Flash-Storage-to-Launch-Compact-7-OS-Image-using-DiskPrep (i can't insert the link)
